Well, I've had enough of this 440 Mystery Motor

Rebuild what I have or replace the engine for possible peace of mind?

My 70 Hemi on the Dyno at Dugan's with my wife (the Boss)


1970 Hemi 426 with Candy my wife.jpg
 
We ran it up to 5,400 if I can recall
Power started dropping at 5,300
I tried to "snap" the pic at 5250 but missed the chance
 
Yeah well 45mph with 3.23 rear sounds pretty hefty these days!!!! Guess I'm getting old.
 
Y'all ain't gonna believe what I paid for that engine BTW. :-)
 
I don't want to know; it better work!!!! My body shop guy showed me his 511cube-440 that came in at $25,000. It's awesome but it better go better than 10.50.....He put another 25,000 in the body on a '65 Fury.Whew
 
Is that like the teaser on the 6 o'clock news????
"Breaking news, when we return"
